Any suggestions?

Google Local is a bit of a joke. If you look up seo uk I'm in the top
five. If you look it up in Google Local even under my own postcode,
where I'm the only household, there's no mention of me at all. It's a
pay-for-inclusion set up, or cockup, and it's probably the same over
there too. I won't pay what they want me to so I don't get in it,
simple as that. Which wipes out its relevance, and makes it pointless
to consult, but they don't seem to have considered that aspect.

Thanks for the reply, but this is a little deeper then your problem. If
you read our entire post you will see we are paying extra to Verizon
for better placement. We are in the Verizon advertiser listing section.
